Christmas Is A-Coming
Christmas is a-coming
With all it's joys and toys
No matter our age
We never lose that little child excitement
Every Christmas morning, our hearts start pumping
Anxious to know what the jolly old man
Has left for us under the tree
The smell of pine, the glitter of the tinsel
The multitude of colourful twinkling lights
Happiness reigns supreme
I wonder if Santa heard me ask for my special gift?
Will Mom, Dad and my sister like what I bought them?
At no other time of the year are families so close
If only we could bottle up the love and enthusiasm
And let it out when we need it through the year
That jolly old man is watching with a big grin on his face
To see how much happiness he has bestowed on us
And hopes it will last till next time he rides into town
Ahh! Christmas, there's no other time like it
Christmas is a-coming
With all it's joys and toys
Happy, happy, happy! Merry Christmas to all!
